How can I stop midi files being played by the QT plugin in IE6?

Hi
Since reloading XP and QT 7.5 Pro, I have a problem I did not have before. In Explorer, my .mid midi files are associated with my preferred Karaoke player.
However, when I click on a .mid link on a web page in IE6, it uses the QT plugin to play it, rather than my preferred player. I have check my QT preferences file types, and midi files are definately NOT associated.
Firefox did the same, so I simply disabled the plugin, clicked a .mid link, and Firefox then asked me to choose a player. However, if I disable the plugin in IE6, when I click a .mid link, I just get a blank page and a baloon warning me the page is trying to use a disabled plug in. My only option at this point is to quit or re-enable the plugin.
Can anybody please help?
Thanks.

In case anyone is interested, I managed to solve this. Basically I disabled the QT plugin, went into Windows media player and assigned midi files to it. Then I went into Explorer and switched the files back to use my Karaoke player. THen I unassigned midi in Media player and reenabled the QT plugin. Bingo!

    How can I retrieve desktop files being erased after updating my computer?

    The easiest method would be to restore them from the last Time Machine backup made just prior to the update. 
    Or use a file recovery application to recovery them.  Most have a demo mode so you can determine if it can find the files you need before purchasing it.  Go to MacUpdate.com and do a search for "recover files" to get a list of potential candidates.

  • How can I STOP Firefox from being a glutton with my virtual memory?

    How can I STOP Firefox from being a glutton with my virtual memory?

    Yes. But, I see from the THOUSANDS of responses here concerning Firefox memory issues that other people have had no more success than I have at trying to STOP Firefox's memory gluttony. The fact that Firefox runs fine (like the good old days) for a while after re-booting and registry cleaning shows that something is going on beyond the trivial/ineffective suggestions offered in the referenced links.
    Having to re-boot several times a day to get Firefox out of the molasses is such a pain, that it's no wonder people are going back to IE, or like me, reluctantly relying more and more on Google Chrome.

    unfortunately, like the previous 6 versions of GB, MIDI export is not supported. you would need to open the file in Logic in order to do that

    As has been mentioned Adobe Reader cannot export PDF page content. Nor can it create PDF or manipulate PDF page content.
    What you can do is use one of Adobe's online subscription services. Two provide for PDF  to Word export.
    There's ExportPDF and PDF Pack.

  • How can I stop recent history being displayed in history menu without stopping remembering history altogether

    I'm using the latest release (10.0) and am looking for a way to stop the history from being displayed in the History menu without turning off History, so I can still access History by going into the library.

    I suppose it would help if I knew not only what you wanted but why, as there are a few possibilities that may help.
    You may use private browsing,to stop some events being logged into the history in the first place, you may also clear items,single ones if need be.
    * see[[Clearing Location bar history]]
    * and [[private browsing]]
    You can choose whether or not to display the history as suggested options from the location bar.
    * see [[location bar autocomplete#w_how-can-i-control-what-results-the-location-bar-shows-me]]_how-can-i-control-what-results-the-location-bar-shows-me
    If you save History, then it can be displayed, I dare say there are methods of removing the button/option to display history from the UseIneterface but it would still be available from the Library.
    Another option you may consider is settng up user accounts on the Operating System for different users, or even setting up separate firefox profiles for different users on the same OS account.

  • Ical synch: how can i stop deleting ical items and synch the rest?

    When synching on itunes, it asks to delete 9000+ items from ical, add and modify are 50 or so each, and I'm very confused why this is happening.
    How can i stop this and synch the rest? I do not want to delete anything but it doesn't seem to have option other than synch later.
    I have icloud calendars synch on as well...
    Thanks!!

    Bruno,
    Welcome to Apple Discussions.
    Are you using any sync software?
    The easiest thing to try is to refresh the the com.apple.iCal.plist file. You will find the com.apple.iCal.plist file in your Macintosh HD/Users/yourusername/Library/Preferences Folder. Quit iCal, drag the com.apple.iCal.plist file to your Desktop, log out/in or restart, and make sure the deletion preference is not checked.

  • How can I prevent breadcrumbs from being used on the first page?

    Hi,
    I'm using the latest version of the technical communication suite to produce a WebHelp
    layout from a framemaker book. Thanks to all the help I've received so far it's proceeding
    well, although slowly.
    II have an initia l'home'  page, that isn't present in the TOC, just with a program logo, a company
    logo and a helpdesk address. How can I stop breadcrumbs from appearing on this page?
    I'm happy for this to be the Home page and to keep the word Home, and it is a separate
    document in the linked framemaker book.
    Has anyone got any ideas as to how I can do this?
    Thanks in advance for your help.
    Best wishes,
    Karen

    Hi Karen
    To each his or her own. Jeff's approach certainly will work but will require you to repeat the process each time you generate. With the approach I outlined you would only need to do things once.
    As for the breadcrumbs not appearing at all, it depends on *WHERE* in the Master Page you elected to add them. In order for the approach I outlined to work, you need to ensure you add the placeholder *OUTSIDE* the Body placeholder. Then you should see breadcrumbs on the pages you have associated with the Master Page.
    Cheers... Rick

  • How can I know which file is using by the self-service workflow?

    Dear all:
    In my directory, there are two HRSSA.wft and How can I know which source is using by the workflow of the self-service ?
    my environment is oracle 11.5.9 | self-service 4.1 | workflow builder 2.6
    Thanks
    regards
    Terry

    One way would be to download the HRSSA workflow to a wft file (using the WFLOAD utility - see MOS Doc 578248.1), then comparing this downloaded wft file with the two files you have (using a utility such as diff in Unix). The comparison that reports no differences will identify the wft that was uploaded into the database.

  • How can I stop .jpg files from automatically being moved off my desktop to my user's Pictures folder?

    When I put a picture file on my desktop (like a screenshot I want to email away), it is automatically whisked off into my user's Pictures folder.
    How do I stop that annoying, unsolicited behaviour?
    thx,

    The only 3d party apps are Hazel...
    And that's your problem!
    From the Hazel site's description:
    Hazel watches whatever folders you tell it to, automatically organizing your files according to the rules you create.
    Hazel, is a prefPane so you must have some rule (or it supplied the rule as a default) to put pictures (jpg's) from your Desktop (folder) into your Pictures folder.
    Open your System Preferences and Hazel in there and either turn off Hazel or change or delete the appropriate rule covering this situation.

  • My Raw files in my 60D keep reseting in Lightroom 5 but not with my Mark II, how can I stop my files

    I exported my Raw Files from my MARK II into Lightroom 5 and they don't get reseted but with my 60D the tone and whitebalance completely changes, how can I fix this?
    Thanks!

    That behavior is a function of the type of email service you are using which in your case must be IMAP. There is no way of changing that behavior on the iPhone. Perhaps you should investigate switching to a POP-type email service.
    There would be no difference between the iPone 4 and iPhone 5 in this respect.
